One of Germany's most beautiful castles. A hub of Schwerin during peak season. Countless other cultural monuments await in Schwerin.

The fairytale Schweriner Schloss was built and renovated in the period of the second half of the 14th century and the 16th century. The residents of the castle were the Dukes and Grand Dukes of Mecklenburg and Mecklenburg-Schwerin

The orangery is a two-winged building, the roof serves as a terrace, it is located in the axis of the main tower of the castle and is open to the sea. The inner courtyard is planted, to the southeast there is an arcade and the statue of Hercules taming a bull in the middle of the arcade. The palm garden and shell fountain, several accessible roof terraces and the sea grotto are part of the orangery.
